What was Manchester United FC's name before it was Manchester United?

Answer 1

the club had numerous previous names. some of these can still be found in historical newspapers of the time. here are some i found recently;

howcrapcanyaget.f.c/ newton no marks.f.c/ the face like a slapped babies bottom.f.c./ the so jealous of Liverpool.f.c./ the we can never overtake Liverpool.f.c./ or anyone else for that matter.f.c/ and a club nowhere near the city and just outside the city of Manchester United.f.c.

it was not until adolf Hitler an infamous united fan ( also coming from outside Manchester) became dictator of lancashire in 1933 did the name Manchester united come into being.

The club was formed as Newton Heath L&YR F.C. in 1878 as the works team of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway depot at Newton Heath.
